Okay, so I finally got off my arse and did another drawing, yay! This one is of a slightly higher quality than the last, because it's not an oekaki for once (*gasp*), it's done in photoshop and painter.

I'm quite happy with it, althought it could use some more development in the face, and maybe, gee I don't know, some actual detail in his clothes?

But um, anyway, this was for the lovely [info]saint_sorrows and was inspired by her lovely story Where the Animals Go. <3





Why is he lit from below in a forest? WHO KNOWS? My current theory is there is a hench-person of some description beneath him with a flashlight. Shut up.

Also I took screenshots as I went, so if people are interested, I can put up a WIP to show how it evolved. It's pretty funny. Y/N? edit: here is a WIP.


Also also, [info]dragonwhishes, you're up next - I'm so sorry, I have been the hugest slacker on the face of the earth drawing for you - I've been so ridiculously exhausted. Would you still like the drawing of your girl reading, or would you like to change ideas?

Workplace advice from the Fashion Director:

"If you're going to sing, you have to do it loudly."

This should tell you something about my workplace.

...spray adhesive is evil.

I don't think 'evil' actually adequately conveys the strength of the horrible and disgusting feeling of sticking to things very faintly for hours after you use it.

It's just not right.

For some reason right now I look like a greasy, creepy delinquent who stayed inside for all of the long weekend to play video games.

I WONDER WHY?

Okay, I did go out on Saturday to see an apartment and a zombie film with nazi zombies in it, but my point still stands.

At work, in front of a bad print-out of a picture of a girl which hadn't yet been colour-corrected:

Art Director: "She looks like something out of Resident Evil II."
Production Manager: "Are you going to fix her?"
Art Director: "Of course not. The zombie look is in this season."


For some weird reason, I've been having lots of conversations about zombies lately. I've decided they must have slowly become the new topic du jour or something... nerd chic? )

For all of you who've been wondering what on earth happened to our pink squawky resident...

We managed to find a home for her with someone from a wildlife organisation - really awesome guy with a kind of raspy whiskey voice and a gigantic aviary in the bushland. His older parrot just shuffled off this mortal coil (I even thought that in a John Cleese kind of voice, forgive me!), and so he was really happy to have a new bird around the place. I think he's meant to re-home the wildlife he finds, but he was so keen on keeping her.

He sent me some pics this week, and it all looks super-awesome. I mean, there's always the outside chance that you're the unlucky one who got the bird psychopath, however good your research on them and their wildlife refuge, but the pics put my mind at rest. Poor thing'll have to wait for her next moult to fly, but she looks really happy, and look, she has outdoor friends, so MISSION ACCOMPLISHED. YAY.




We will now return you to your regularly scheduled programming.

Okay - turns out he's a pet that my sister rescued from an irresponsible owner who didn't want him any more (which wasn't entirely her fault - he was an unexpected present for her, too. Poor bird!). moar! )

There is a galah in my living room.

I'm a little baffled. I only noticed the bird cage after I'd been home a while - I lifted the cover expecting a budgie or at most a cockatiel or something, and was really startled when I came eye to eye with a giant pink bird. My sister has obviously aquired it somehow, but she's not awake so I can't find out what on earth is going on. I'm guessing it's on loan only... I adore birds but we're not exactly set up to take care of something like this long-term - we're rather lacking in the aviary department.

It's in a small cage for its size, although it looks very healthy - I have no idea if it's injured wildlife or a pet. I'm so very very curious - why do we have a random parrot?! There must be a story behind this. I hope it's just being rehabilitated, because it's a beautiful bird, but I've always felt pretty bad about large parrots in captivity - it seems unfair to me.

Does anyone else ever come home to surprise exotic pets, or am I just lucky...?

"Highlights" of the job...

When a gigantic runway model casting turns walking your hallway into a frightening gauntlet run past roughly thirty, seven(ty) foot tall, bizarrely gorgeous women.

The whole office spent the morning grumpily joking about feeling short, fat and ugly.


Funnily, at one point I beat a model around the corner as she was called to be seen by the fashion team. They looked very slightly surprised, but with a straight face asked me to turn around, pose, and stand up at the wall to take photos. I just posed with my cup of tea, then kept walking... I love our fashion team.
